In my day, not only would we still have school, the administration would have had us combing the campus, looking for the bomb.

I have a former acquaintance that did this a A Durchtown school 10 years or so ago. He was a teacher at the school. He had a lot of personal issues going on at the time and needed to miss work and was out of PTO. That was his reasoning. He sent the email from a home computer and not a mobile device.

Cops swarmed his house by noon and arrested him. He got in a LOT of trouble for it. Charged with terrorizing; etc.

From a mobile device, they can see from the towers for a general idea and once the have a suspect,I’m sure that they can determine is by phone analysis. I don’t really know from that point, depends on how the kid did it.

it really doesn't matter, there are not enough trained people to comb each campus and call it all clear before they are full of kids, etc..

this, is the reason LP did what they did..They don't make many smart decisions, but this was actually one

100% always a hoax. If you wanted to blow up a school to hurt kids, you wouldn't call in a heads-up.

What happens tomorrow when the same email gets sent? Then the next day? Then everyday?

According to the hit TV show Burn Notice, it is
quote:
National intelligence agencies and local law enforcement work together more often than you might think. Most metropolitan police stations have an office called a fusion center where classified intel is collected in one place. It’s a great resource if you need information fast. Unfortunately, it does involve breaking into a police station.



Just watched that episode yesterday

The mommy brigade is up-in-arms on the APSB Facebook page. How dare you put my baby in harms way.

Show me a bomb located in a school and I'll show you 5 million hoaxes.

Reasons to call in a bomb threat:
- Get the school closed for a day off
- Cause terrorist chaos of shutdowns

Things you don't do if you actually planted a bomb to hurt people:
- Notify people ahead of time

They have tried to disrupt the best and brightest by targeting Livingston and Grant Parishes in La.


I like our chances of winning this confrontation with em.


Keeping La kids away from education is like telling David Hogg he cant have a gun today.

They can target many schools at once in multiple states. They just skim the Internet for emails on school websites and send threat emails en masse. There are probably dozens of other schools in other states with the same thing going on today. There is no coordination among school systems to communicate its likely a troll and everyone reacts differently. In fact for many school systems on the East Coast its the first day of school today.

These kids are stupid. Should’ve called it in Friday and got a four day weekend. Don’t know if they still do this but back in my day they’d tell us there was a bomb threat as cover to bring out dogs and search the school for drugs but they never sent us home just went to hang out on the football field til they were done.

These aren't kids at local schools doing this. This shite is getting blasted out statewide and likely much more widespread than that.
